CFS Land Surveying

Land Surveying is the science and technique of accurately determining the terrestrial or three-dimensional positions of points of interest on, above, or beneath the surface of the earth and the spatial relationship between them. These points are often used to create or enhance the detail of land maps that are utilized for everything from road maps to delineating boundaries of ownership and/or sovereignty.  In order to accomplish their objective, surveyors use elements of geometry (Greek: measuring the Earth), mathematics, physics, engineering, and law.

Behind the mystery of Giza, Stonehenge, Notre-Dame de Paris, there emerges the work of the surveyor.

"In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth."  -  Genesis 1.1                                   "With this immortal sentence, the Bible memorialized the first and longest running boundary dispute."  -  Bruce S. Flushman                                                                                                             Does this mean God was a surveyor?  If anything the above calls into question what was indeed man's oldest profession. 

The profession of land surveying has been around as long as the idea of territorial ownership. Land surveyors were employed by pharaohs, emperors, kings, conquerors to determine boundaries for sovereignty, ownership, land use, taxation, land grants, and so on.  From our culture emerges our concept of real property ownership and the laws governing their boundaries, and the land surveyor is central to this understanding.
